Graphics Class in AWT

The Graphics class in Java provides methods for drawing shapes and text. It is an abstract class in the java.awt package. Some key methods include paint() for initial drawing, repaint() to erase, and drawLine(), drawRect(), drawOval(), drawRoundRect(), drawString(), drawPolygon() and drawArc() to render the different shapes. Colors can be set using setColor() and pre-defined color constants. The Graphics class serves as the base for drawing graphics in Java applications.
